About this chart

Chile's GDP stood at about $357 billion in 2025, its highest in the series and 44th in the world. It was 40th in 1980 and 45th in 2000, so its rank has barely moved even as output grew from $30 billion to $78 billion to $357 billion. The data show two severe falls: 53 percent in 1975, to $8 billion, and 44 percent in 1982, to $20 billion. GDP was $217 billion in 2010.

Chile finishes the race with its three nearest economies in a close pack. Egypt ($365 billion) and Iran ($363 billion) are just ahead, while Portugal ($347 billion) is behind. Chile passed Portugal in 2011 and has stayed ahead, and it fell behind Egypt in 2019. These are nominal current US dollars, not adjusted for inflation or purchasing power, so exchange-rate swings move the line.
